Bodhisattva, please help me in my spiritual practice!
Chapter 96 Haunted House
Chapter 96 Haunted House
The next day, inside the polling bureau, Ao Peng was receiving his first reprimand from his superiors.
His cultivation of the Cloudless Azure Sky Form was so tumultuous that it directly affected the spirits of hundreds of people. Even tens of thousands of people in several surrounding neighborhoods could see that the apartment building where Ao Peng was located was radiating light all night, and within the light, there was a Bodhisattva and eight Arhats preaching the Dharma!
Last night, the hotline of the Taichung City Investigation Bureau was overwhelmed with calls.
Fortunately, the impact was not serious, and there were no casualties or property damage.
Hao Ke patiently explained, "You told me the day before yesterday that you were just practicing a medical skill, so why did it cause such a stir?"
Ao Peng shrugged, "Facts speak louder than words."
A green lamp appeared in his palm. The lamp was shaped like a lotus flower, with an ancient color and a strong Buddhist feel. However, the wick of the lamp did not hold an ordinary flame, but a small bright moon!
Under the bright moonlight, not only Hao Ke's office but also four or five surrounding offices were affected.
Suddenly, Hao Ke felt the tightness in his chest disappear, like the moon rising and the wind blowing. His back pain also subsided, and his legs felt nimble again.
A person's emotions can influence the development of most diseases!
In medicine, placebos are a legitimate medical treatment.
Therefore, the cloudless blue sky phenomenon can indeed be considered a medical treatment, and even a top-tier form of talk therapy!
Well, now Hao Ke had to believe that Ao Peng had indeed mastered a top-notch medical skill. Having a real healer in the team was better than anything else, especially a healer like Ao Peng who could fight and tank!
Hao Ke then said gently, "This cultivation method is urgent. Give me a call, and I'll definitely arrange a quiet room for you as soon as possible. It's so inconvenient to cultivate in an apartment."
Ao Peng nodded readily in agreement. This time, the main reason was that eight relics were burned at once; otherwise, with his own power, the impact would not have been so great.
Of course, moving to a new house is something that needs to be done immediately.
Seeing that Ao Peng had sincerely accepted his opinion, what else could Hao Ke say? Ao Peng was now the apple of his eye.
Moreover, this precious darling is not only capable, but also able to bring in other capable people.
In just the last two days, Ao Peng brought Shen Huaiyue and his brother to the First Action Section of Tai City. Hao Ke would cherish such a subordinate as if he wanted to hold him dear. If he said a few harsh words, Ao Peng would not feel anything, but Hao Ke himself would have to think for a long time about whether he had said too much!
In the afternoon, Ao Peng first went to the real estate agency center.
Having prior experience, he found a place much more efficiently this time.
Of course, the better the location of a villa, the more expensive it is, but Ao Peng actually needs a villa that is remote and quiet.
Fortunately, with the large-scale renovations and construction in recent years, there are plenty of these ghost town-like villas now.
Ao Peng carefully flipped through the pages, and suddenly a villa caught his attention. It was a villa nestled against the mountain and facing the river, which should theoretically be a top-tier location with extremely high rental prices.
However, this 800-square-meter villa with a 200-square-meter garden is only 8000 yuan per month, and it is fully furnished, so you can move in immediately.
There's definitely something fishy about this price, which is so far below market value.
Ao Peng looked at the real estate agent curiously, and the agent didn't hide anything, saying truthfully, "Although this villa is cheaper than others, we don't recommend it."
Ao Peng's eyes lit up. "A haunted house?"
The agent nodded slightly and answered honestly, "It counts as half. In the last two months, a total of six households have moved in, but all of them have had accidents. Fortunately, no one was killed. They were so scared that they were willing to pay the penalty for breaking the contract to move out. We suggested to our boss that we stop promoting this house, but our boss scolded us for being stupid not to make money."
A few months ago, he certainly wouldn't have said it outright, but in recent months, more and more strange things have been happening around him, and there have even been more rumors about ghosts online. The agent is uneasy, afraid that someone might have really died inside and become an evil ghost, coming back to take revenge on him.
"Take me to see it!"
Seeing that Ao Peng was so insistent, and since the agent had already explained the issues with the house, he took Ao Peng to see it.
The house has a great location, situated at the foot of a mountain in Taishi, with a small river flowing in front of it. It is also far away from the surrounding villas. The only drawback is that you need a car to get around.
In the other world, Ao Peng is an experienced driver. Recently, he can apply for a fast-track driver's license test through the Bureau of Public Opinion. As long as he passes the test, he can get his driver's license in one or two days.
Because the Bureau of Investigation has to handle all kinds of emergencies, it is not an abuse of power for core frontline personnel like Ao Peng to have an official car for transportation.
Upon entering the house, even though it was broad daylight, the agent immediately turned on all the lights. Then, he began to explain the specific details of the house one by one. Unlike other houses where the focus was on the facilities, the agent emphasized the haunted aspects of this house.
All six tenants, including the original owner, have had various accidents. Some broke their legs, while others bumped their foreheads and bled profusely. The accidents were quite serious, and the longer they lived there, the more accidents occurred, as if the house was trying to evict them!
Ao Peng walked around the house and found nothing unusual. The only unusual thing was that he felt really comfortable after entering the house!
The earth's energy here is at least ten times richer than in other places!
This single characteristic alone made Ao Peng almost certain that he would stay here.
So he paid the deposit on the spot and signed a contract with the agent.
Then he called Chu Ge and Hao Ke to inform them of his new address.
That evening, Chu Ge arrived with two moving company trucks.
She first looked around the villa. Although it wasn't great in her eyes, it was at least much better than the small apartment Ao Peng used to live in.
With a wave of her hand, the moving company immediately moved all the items out and replaced them with new ones.
Ao Peng was easygoing and didn't even mind using old bedding, but Chu Ge couldn't stand it. She naturally had to replace anything that came into contact with her own body with her own. This house wasn't just for Ao Peng; she would also come to stay there often.
As for the issue of compensation for the old furniture that was thrown away, it was not a problem at all in Sister Chu's eyes!
While the movers were busy, Chu Ge put her arm around Ao Peng's waist and started showing off their affection. She rested her head against Ao Peng's chest and said, "I know you're a bit of a chauvinist, but where we live is ultimately a matter for both of us. This location isn't the best, but I have over a dozen empty villas in the city. Why don't you choose another one?"
It's so great to be kept by a rich woman!
However, Ao Peng did not discuss the house selection with Chu Ge immediately because he had not yet reached the point where he needed to tell Chu Ge everything.
Chu Ge is both his bedmate and a gamer. If Ao Peng gets too close to Chu Ge, his special nature will be discovered sooner or later.
However, Ao Peng had only slept with Chu Ge in the real world for less than a week, so it was impossible for him to entrust Chu Ge with his most important secret. The saying goes that feelings grow over time, but this kind of feeling requires time, and Chu Ge clearly does not meet this condition yet.
Chu Ge certainly noticed Ao Peng's deliberate distancing, but in her eyes, she only thought that Ao Peng was young, playful, and hadn't settled down, so he didn't want to live with her. She was a smart woman and knew that it was enough to mention this matter once; she couldn't say too much, otherwise it would cause Ao Peng to rebel. She thought that one day Ao Peng would understand and settle down naturally.
